Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is an extremely rare disease caused by a cancerous growth in the adrenal cortex. Although most of adrenal tumors are benign, the functional ACC is malignant resulting in endocrine dysfunction and necessitates surgical removal. Retroperitoneal laparoscope adrenalectomy is often used to perform adrenal gland surgery. Here, we reported a case of huge ACC with the size of 6.8 cm x 5.2 cm. To achieve better surgical outcome, we integrated 3D reconstructed CT images into a dynamic video for preoperative planning and intraoperative guiding to resect the diseased adrenal gland completely without neighbor organ's injury and surgery complications. Moreover, we reviewed associated applications using 3D reconstructed CT imaging in surgery field. Finally, the evaluation and effect of such technology were discussed to reveal that the 3D dynamic video can help surgeon to make better preoperative assessment so as to give patients better therapy.
